GuardHer

GuardHer helps students and young women navigate their surroundings more safely by identifying reported unsafe areas and suggesting safer routes in real time.

GuardHer is a community-driven safety app designed to help students and young women feel safer in their everyday environments. Users can anonymously report unsafe incidents, view community-reported locations on a map, and receive safer route suggestions when traveling between locations. The app prioritizes privacy and user safety. Reports are anonymous, location-based, and time-stamped to help identify trends while protecting individuals. GuardHer also includes optional feedback features to improve accuracy and community trust. GuardHer was developed to address real safety concerns in urban school environments and aims to empower users with information, awareness, and safer navigation choices. GuardHer does not share personal user data publicly. Location data is used only for safety-related features and is not sold or shared with third parties. GuardHer was designed and developed by Anushka Arjun, a high school student, to help students and young women stay safe.
